Every Friday, Dermot and Dave ask somebody with an interesting hobby/profession to enlighten listeners on #AskMeAnything

This week, former bodybuilder Kerrie Doyle told us about her insatiable workout routines and craving to reach her goals. She also chats fake tan, dehydration and pole dancing shoes.

Bodybuilding is the aesthetics of how you look. Nobody really cares about what you can lift

You can check out Kerrie's insta page here.

With the Irish Government hoping to have banned diesel and petrol vehicles in this country by 2030, we have just over a decade left to cop ourselves on and go green.

But just how easy is it to convert to an electric vehicle (EV)?

Freelance Motoring Journalist and Road Test Editor for completecar.ie, Dave Humphreys, talks Dermot and Dave through everything a person need to know about the EV way of life.

Dave steers us through various costs involved in the crossover, informs us about the grants EV owners are eligible for and answers some very important questions on people's biggest fear - how to keep them charged.

There's looooaaaads on lads

Dermot and Dave producer Maria Devereux is half human half TV guide, who loves telling us all the best stuff happening on the box.

With the weekend upon us, here's what she reckons we should check out:

The Graham Norton Show - Tonight (Friday) @10:35pm on BBC One

The red couch will be graced with the bums of Bruce Springsteen, who talks about his new documentary Western Stars, Sienna Miller, who reflects on taking the lead role in gritty family drama American Woman, Oscar-winner Robert De Niro, starring in Martin Scorsese's The Irishman, and actor and comedian Paul Rudd, who discusses his new TV series Living with Yourself.  James Blunt will be performing his new song Cold.

 

The Late Late Show - Tonight @9:35pm on RTÉ One 

Tubs will be joined by Liveline ledge Joe Duffy, former Irish international Jamie Heaslip, the cast of Mrs Brown's Boys (to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Agnus) and Bernard O'Shea chats about his new book 'My Wife is Married to a Feckin Eejit'. But our favourite guest has to be the Speaker of the House of Commons, John Bercow.

With John retiring at the end of the month, he should have plenty of secrets to share.

 

The Wall - Saturday @8:35pm on BBC One

Danny "I'm hard as nails" Dyer hosts a brand new quiz show described as "combining strategy, knowledge and luck, you could be in with a chance to win a potentially life-changing cash prize":

This week Dermot and Dave spoke to team member Eimear Shannon about her fall at the IMRO Radio Awards. Dermot & Dave show producer Maria spoke about some of the worst Customer Service she has experienced. And, Dave had some Bad Jokes, while Noni gave us a news update from Limerick.

'Support Seán' takes place in Dublin’s 3Arena on Friday, January 10th, 2020

A stellar line-up of Irish comedians are coming together to raise money for The Seán Cox Rehabilitation Trust.

Hosted by the one and only John Bishop, it will be an evening of top notch stand-up comedy with the likes of Tommy Tiernan, Dara O’Briain, Deirdre O’Kane, Joanne McNally, Jason Byrne, Des Bishop and  Michael McIntyre (he's English - I know) all performing  for the ‘Support Seán’ campaign.

An Evening of Comedy in Aid of The Sean Cox Trust takes place at 3Arena on 10 January 2020.

Speaking on Today FM's Dermot and Dave, John chats about why he wants to help Seán and his family so much and what the audience can expect on the night.

Cox was left with life-changing injuries after being attacked by a Roma fan at a Champions League game last season. Bishop says, "what happened to Seán could have happened to any of us".

Seán is currently undergoing an initial 12-week rehabilitation programme in the north of England in a specialist neurological facility which focuses on developing speech and movement. This comes after almost 18 months of treatment in Ireland.

Tickets for the event go on sale Monday, October 14th @9am and you can buy them by clicking here.

Bishop also tells us how his new book, How To Grow Old (A middle-aged man moaning) came about. It's out on November 14th, just in time for Christmas *cough, stocking filler, cough*

"Hagibis, you're only a gowl"

Noni is back with her latest news bulletin, where she gives us an update on Typhoon Hagibis and has some other Rugby World Cup goss:

"Chawwwklit specials this week include a lick of a Wispa for a euro and a slap of Yorkie for Naaatin"

Noni's News is back, with extra behind the scenes footage of how much budget we spend on her set

"Taxing the hole off people and patting yourselves on the back for it, it just doesn't work for me"

In what has been a very testing week for Ireland environmentally, fiscally and politically, Today FM's Dermot and Dave wanted to learn a bit more about the Extinction Rebellion movement.

The global group, who describes itself as a 'non-violent Rebellion against the governments of the world for climate and ecological justice', have caused disruptions in Dublin since Monday as part of a seven-day protest there.

This led Dermot Whelan to the Budget, and he's not in favour of Paschal & co's approach:

 

Being a housemate isn't easy.

Even if ye all get on like a house on fire, there's always a few idiosyncrasies that will grind each others' gears.

Housemate matching site Ideal Flatmate recently conducted a survey of 1,000 people currently renting shared accommodation, where they asked people for the habits they hate most.

Here are the results:

11 - Walking around half naked (1%)

10 - Their pets (1%)

 9 - Loud sex (4%)

 8 - Stinking out the place with food you cook/eat (4%)

 7 - Partying with friends at short notice (5%)

 6 - The amount of time spent in the bathroom in the morning (5%)

 5 - Eating someone else's food (6%)

 4 - Not splitting the cost of bills fairly (9%)

 3 - Smoking in the house/apartment (11%)

 2 - Not doing their fair share of chores (22%)

 1 - Poor cleanliness (32%)

Seán Reidy from the Dermot and Dave team talked the lads through these annoyances and even spilled the beans on his own flatmates.

What he failed to remember is that one of the people he lives with works in Marconi House (Today FM HQ), so we sneakily asked Spin FM's Nathan O'Reilly (of Fully Charged with Graham and Nathan fame) to return the favour.

Listeners also had a few gems to throw into the mix.

He's the richest person in HISTORY!

Does the name Jeff Bezos sound familiar to you? Is it ringing any bells at all?

Well it should, because I can guarantee that at some point in your life you've given him a few quid.

Bezos is the founder, CEO and president of Amazon.com

Dave Moore had a mind-boggling stat for us on Dave's World today after his mate Luke retweeted this:

If you worked every single day, making $5000/day, from the time Columbus sailed to America, to the time you are reading this tweet, you would still not be a billionaire, and you would still have less money than Jeff Bezos makes in a week. No one works for a billion dollars.

It’s Wednesday, and you know what Wednesday means - it’s time to Say Stuff That Suits The Music!

Dave plays the tracks and Dermot says whatever comes into his head.

Today's offering was all to do with the Budget and even Britney isn't happy with Paschal's proposals.
